Lakers center Chris Kaman injures his finger while tobogganing at the Great Wall of China

The Los Angeles Lakers are in China to play two preseason games against the Golden State Warriors, and before the team got down to business, players and staff did a little sightseeing at the Great Wall of China. At the Mutianyu portion of the wall, visitors can take a toboggan down a slope. Kaman sped down the slippery track unharmed, but was eventually barged into by teammate Shawne Williams.

His sled, essentially a wheeled cart with a brake, was rammed from behind by teammate Shawne Williams. Kaman instinctively put out his hand as he saw Williams careening toward him and, well, ouch.

“I didn’t hit the brake the whole time. Guys on the edge were yelling ‘Slow down’ and I just kept going,” Kaman said. “All of a sudden I catch up to this guy close to the bottom, so now I have to brake. Shawne Williams comes behind me without hitting his brake at all and just smashed right into me…. My hand smashed right between the two sleds. I didn’t feel the end of my finger for, like, an hour. It’s starting to throb a little right now.”

Kaman said he expects to play Tuesday against the Warriors. This is how we assume Kobe Bryant reacted.
